[QUOTE 4994692, member: 9609"]Grand Design - it is ages since I watched one of these, this was the fossil shaped house on the hill, what a wonderful house and an amazing amount of effort and skill to create that shape, wonderful inside, however I think they ruined the outside with what looked like pallets stuck all over it.[/QUOTE]
Its one of those programmes I never fancy watching but when I do I enjoy it, then go through a period of recording it and get bored! Guess it the repetitive nature

A place in the sun, a couple have been shown a couple of traditional Spanish houses, they are not keen however they are rather taken with a static home on a static home site. Not sure why they would choose what is in effect a caravan instead of a house i'm not sure

I watched the first half of the first episode of Rellik... the rewinds seemed creative at first, but soon got tiresome. Has anyone bothered sticking with this over stylised mess?

I gave up but Mrs Mik watched it which is unusual as she hates non-linear story telling

Cannabis Netflix French subtitled .
Excellent so far after 2 episodes

Lucifer S3 - back on Prime and it remains one of the best shows on the box. Outrageously funny, brilliantly scripted.

Line of Duty S1 (on Netflix). Missed this first time round, but catching up now and it deserves every plaudit it gets.

London's Burning - being rerun from the start on Drama. You forget how good this was at the outset, rather than the soap it descended into later. Gritty, social commentary and some very black humour. Looks dated now, as you might expect, but very watchable.

A friend has just introduced me to 'Toast of London' Steven Toast, the central character of the series. A bumbling, self-important actor, an unsuccessful ladies' man and often the bearer of bad fortune. However, Toast considers himself a success despite his obviously failing career. You can catch up on Ch4 or Prime

I don't very often laugh out loud watching stuff, but this clip had me in stitches -

The Deuce on HBO - very good writing and acting, no CGI or special effects and a serious subject matter.

That trailer makes it look good, but I wish I had turned off earlier, it looks like the Deuce trailer is followed by a trailer for a later season of Game of Thrones then the one I am on now - Season 2 - not overly impressed by GOT, perhaps it is all the raving about it that people do making it a bit of an anti-climax for me, and why is everyone so intense and serious all the time? I don't really see what the fuss is but am persevering because I got the DVDs as presents.

Sorry - didn't realise there were other trailers on it. That trailer doesn't do it justice tbh, it really is on a par with The Wire imo.

 

[Richard A Thackeray]

The first episode of the new series of Supergirl last night, & episode 5 of Star-Trek Discovery

 

[accountantpete]

That show has the first F-bomb in Star Trek history

Yeah, that was a bit of a jaw drop moment. Unnecessary imo.
